MORIC - Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Don't You Dare Kiss Me

Chi Yueshan woke up to find herself in a hospital.

And this hospital looked very expensive, completely different from the public hospital the restaurant owner had taken her to when she was working there.

A private hospital room!

Thinking of her savings, she instantly felt she didn't need to lie down anymore. Just as she was about to pull out the IV drip from her hand, she heard a familiar voice—

"What are you doing?"

Chi Yueshan froze for a long moment, her whole body stiffening. Her hand remained poised to pinch the IV tube, looking as if she had turned to stone in Xi Zhoumeng's eyes.

It was still raining outside, and the smell of disinfectant lingered in the room.

Xi Zhoumeng thought Chi Yueshan was unwell and hurried over to press the call button.

"Are you still not feeling well? Chi Yueshan, you..."

All her words were cut off. Chi Yueshan threw her arms around her waist, not even caring that the IV pillow had shifted and blood was backing up into the tube.

This little bit of pain was truly nothing. The little Omega who had endured hardship since childhood feared nothing, but she found that after meeting Xi Zhoumeng, she had become a coward.

"Why didn't you come find me?"

Xi Zhoumeng subconsciously hugged Chi Yueshan back. In an instant, all the floating, unmoored feelings of the past two months dissipated, like a fallen leaf returning to its roots. She, too, had found a shore to dock at.

Chi Yueshan cried loudly. In all of Xi Zhoumeng's restored memories, Chi Yueshan was not a crybaby.

She was used to forging ahead, not being affected by complicated emotions.

But this time, she couldn't let it go either.

How could she let it go? This kind of grievance, the pain of knowing where Xi Zhoumeng was but being unable to get close.

It was like the chasm between the lower and Upper Worlds from before.

No matter which world, no matter where, there was always some inexplicable boundary.

She wanted to cross it, but even with her utmost effort, there might not be any result.

Xi Zhoumeng hugged her back. "Sorry, I couldn't remember."

She said it with difficulty, well aware of how pale words were.

But Chi Yueshan's scolding got stuck in her throat, and she anxiously started to check Xi Zhoumeng over instead.

Her face was still perfectly flawless. The place where she had been stabbed before they fell into the Folded Space had already healed, leaving only a faint scar.

Her brain... she couldn't check her brain.

Chi Yueshan nervously cupped Xi Zhoumeng's face. "How much do you remember now?"

The little Omega's eyes were clear, filled with concern. Xi Zhoumeng felt her own happiness was about to overflow.

All her recent loneliness was filled, and she was in no mood to joke around like before.

"I remember everything. Don't worry, there won't be a situation where you find me and discover I'm already married."

Her tone was light. She lowered her head to kiss the back of Chi Yueshan's hand, yet found it very difficult not to focus on the other's body.

Chi Yueshan wasn't much thinner than before, but perhaps because her body hadn't acclimated to the new environment, she looked a bit malnourished at first glance. The body that Xi Zhoumeng had painstakingly fattened up had returned to its original state, the ends of her hair dry and split, but her chest was much larger. It was because in there, there was...

Xi Zhoumeng's eyelashes trembled, and an uncontrollable heartache welled up. She really wanted to escape this fact, but discovered that fate was truly unavoidable.

What was meant to be would be, just like this child. Perhaps it was her and Chi Yueshan's fated child, impossible to dodge, only to be accepted.

Chi Yueshan leaned against the bed. Having finally seen Xi Zhoumeng, she wished she could just curl up with her.

But she was too embarrassed to say it, so she could only look at her eagerly, a bit like a teacher quizzing a student with a straight face—

"Then tell me, when did we first meet?"

Xi Zhoumeng: "During the principal's address to new students at the start of the school year."

Chi Yueshan nodded. "What was the play for our elective class?"

Xi Zhoumeng blinked. "《Yellow Rose》."

Chi Yueshan pursed her lips, hooking her hand with Xi Zhoumeng's, feeling her warmth. But her eyes never left Xi Zhoumeng's face as she asked in a small voice, "Then... when was our first ki... just, kiss?"

Xi Zhoumeng: "When you treated me to a meal. You kissed me."

Chi Yueshan hummed, asking shyly and expectantly, "And our first... you know...?"

Xi Zhoumeng feigned ignorance. "Which 'you know'?"

Chi Yueshan's face was still pale, but her constitution was actually very good. Plus, the first month at the restaurant had gone well, so it would be easier to recover. Even now, with her eyes darting around, she still had the liveliness familiar to Xi Zhoumeng.

Chi Yueshan lowered her voice, rather furtively, "You know, that."

Xi Zhoumeng: "Hmm? Which kind of that? The one where I kissed you there, or the one where I went into your... mmmph..."

Chi Yueshan took a deep breath. "Alright, alright, I know you remember everything! Don't say any more!!!"

But her eyes were still red. Seeing Xi Zhoumeng made her happy yet sad, and her whole body exuded a scent that begged to be caressed.

The bed in the private room was large to begin with. Aside from the medical equipment beside it, the other decorations didn't feel much like a hospital.

Chi Yueshan got her wish and was held in Xi Zhoumeng's arms. She greedily sniffed Xi Zhoumeng's scent, but then became dissatisfied for some reason. "You changed your perfume."

Xi Zhoumeng: "I couldn't find the old one."

Chi Yueshan was a little unhappy. "I can't smell any pheromones here, not even yours."

Xi Zhoumeng gently patted her back. "After all, there are no secondary genders here, and no heat cycles."

Chi Yueshan: "Was your original world like this? I thought you went back to your home planet. The spaceship fare is so expensive, I thought I'd have to work for years just to find you."

Her tone was soft and cottony. After her body had been overdrawn, it was still sore even after being replenished with nutrients, not to mention she was carrying a baby in her belly.

Xi Zhoumeng had been scared to death back then. She had completely ignored Xuan Rujia's urging, disregarded the event, and taken Chi Yueshan straight to the hospital.

When the doctor said Chi Yueshan was almost three months pregnant, Xi Zhoumeng felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

Perhaps it was because of the Folded Space, but her built-in system had disappeared.

What's more, Xi Zhoumeng was still in a state of amnesia and didn't even know she had a system.

Even after she remembered, she didn't hear its voice.

Chi Yueshan started chattering again. "You're doing well for yourself, even without remembering anything! Damn it, how are you born with such a good life..."

She was happy and unhappy. Happy that Xi Zhoumeng was well taken care of and didn't have to work like her.

Unhappy because there was someone new by her side, with vivid gossip spreading online.

Even though Chi Yueshan was strong-willed and certain of her and Xi Zhoumeng's one-hundred-percent match and confirmed AO bond.

But this was not her world.

Without AOs and without pheromones, Xi Zhoumeng still had the right to choose again.

She hummed and nuzzled against Xi Zhoumeng's chest. This kind of intimate friction could easily make one want to cry. But she was so pathetic; the moment she touched Xi Zhoumeng, she felt that fate had been quite good to her after all.

At least she hadn't lost Xi Zhoumeng yet.

Xi Zhoumeng: "I'm sorry."

She hugged Chi Yueshan closer, being very careful of her stomach, which made her whole body a bit tense.

Chi Yueshan burst out laughing. "Isn't it despairing? It's really here."

Xi Zhoumeng: "What are you gloating about? Aren't you the one who's uncomfortable?"

Chi Yueshan touched her belly. "It's not so bad. My body is great. I do throw up sometimes, but I'm happy."

She suddenly became very talkative. "Actually, I'm doing okay, you don't have to worry about me. My survival skills are top-notch."

"When I first got here, I met good people, just like when I was young and met Senior Wen and then my master."

"Working in a small restaurant, I had food and drink. I even found time to redraw your mecha's blueprints. Oh, can you not summon your mecha now either?"

Xi Zhoumeng didn't want to hear anything about mechas. Her mind was filled with how terrifying this pregnancy was.

"Throwing up? Isn't that awful? Let's get it checked again. Can we... not have it?"

Her brows knit in anxiety. "The technology here isn't as advanced as back there, but you can't get an abortion there. If we do it here, the recovery..."

Chi Yueshan wasn't angry. She just quietly enjoyed this rare display of emotion from Xi Zhoumeng.

From the moment she met Xi Zhoumeng, this person had always been calm and composed. Even if she was fussy and narcissistic, she didn't really show any particularly strong emotions.

Thinking back, it seemed all of Xi Zhoumeng's joys and sorrows were because of her.

Chi Yueshan was amused and happy, finally silencing Xi Zhoumeng's endless chatter with her mouth.

This person was different.

Just kissing this person already made me so happy.

I'm so easy to satisfy.

Chi Yueshan squinted her eyes, still unable to stop smiling.

"I want it."

When she smiled, her eyes curved into crescents. But because she had just cried, the tip of her nose and her eye sockets were red, making her look like a ripe peach.

"I want you, and I want our child."

"In this world, even if women marry women, they can't have children naturally. They need artificial insemination, and it seems there are a lot of disputes."

"Since women can have children with women in our world, why shouldn't we have one if we want one?"

Xi Zhoumeng still had a frown on her face. A beautiful person is still beautiful even when unhappy.

Heaven knows how much Chi Yueshan missed her, missed the time she and Xi Zhoumeng lived at the Xi family home.

That seemed to have become Chi Yueshan's home too.

Her lips pecked at Xi Zhoumeng's face again. "Even if I can't smell pheromones, I still feel my body is strange."

Even though she had said many things like that while being intimate with Xi Zhoumeng in bed, Chi Yueshan was still not good at being the one to initiate.

She said tactfully, "Xi Zhoumeng, I really, really miss you."

Xi Zhoumeng felt sorry for her current physical state, so her kisses were very gentle, not realizing that the Omega in her arms might be expecting more than a gentle drizzle.

After all, their knotting was so ferocious, an earth-shattering tremor and a sweat-drenched invasion.

How could one forget that?

Even if Chi Yueshan was mentally trying to be restrained, her body was not.

Xi Zhoumeng: "I miss you too. We'll go back."

She was still thinking about the Folded Space. The Zerg without an entry in the codex were strange. And now, recalling the attack, Xi Zhoumeng felt that group of Zerg wasn't as ferocious as the high-grade Zerg they had encountered before.

Their appearance was very different.

And they seemed to be coming right for me. What was that about?

What, do the Zerg have different factions now?

The fact that Chi Yueshan and I could enter means the system's calculated peak value was indeed correct. But how do we get out?

The task of unilaterally completing the magnetic field peak has already been given to Xuan Ping to handle.

Without the system, there's no cheat device, but Xi Zhoumeng subconsciously felt it wasn't that bad.

She was even certain her plan would succeed.

She was thinking very seriously, which was enough for Chi Yueshan to admire her at length.

But how can someone who has been separated for so long be content with just admiring? Especially when a pregnant body is sensitive and empty, Chi Yueshan couldn't even resolve her own deep-seated desires.

She craved Xi Zhoumeng.

Unfortunately, Xi Zhoumeng somehow didn't get it.

Chi Yueshan was a little angry. She burrowed deeper into Xi Zhoumeng's embrace, took Xi Zhoumeng's hand, and tore off her own absorbent pad.

It had been soaked through in the heavy rain earlier. Xi Zhoumeng must have been the one who changed it for me.

Only when her own clothes became wet did Xi Zhoumeng snap back to reality.

She looked down at her clothes, then at Chi Yueshan, who had her eyes closed and was ignoring her to take matters into her own hands.

Xi Zhoumeng nodded lovingly and kissed the yellow rose tattoo on Chi Yueshan's chest.

The wet, hot kiss made Chi Yueshan open her eyes. She hummed, "Who gave you permission to kiss me?"

Xi Zhoumeng: "You did."

She was a bit troubled. "We're in a hospital. When we change the sheets, we can't just say you wet the bed, can we?"

Chi Yueshan kicked her unceremoniously. "I would never."

Xi Zhoumeng hummed in agreement. "So all those other times were from pleasure. I get it now."

Chi Yueshan was dying of shame and anger. "It would be better if you didn't have a mouth!"
